Neuromuscular disorders include pathological processes involving one or more components of the motor unit comprising a motor neuron with its axon and myelin sheath, neuromuscular transmission, and all the muscle fibres it innervates. This chapter will discuss the general care of patients with neuromuscular disease and then describe the more common conditions seen in the intensive care setting.
